Hello, beginner here, please be kind.
I keep hearing that Mac is safe and has no need for real-time scanner, but also that it is needed, but apps for that are... bad.
I heard Norton is very bad?
Are Avira, Avast, AVG or Sophos bad for Mac health?
Among free apps I keep seeing only Malwarebytes that is considered good.
I download apps only from App Shop or from known pages (like VLC player). I don't go to suspicious sites, but save images from boards (sometimes gif and webm) and I surf places like Tumblr for pics and cat videos (downloading mp4s sometimes from tumblr's server).
With lifestyle like this, is there an app I need? Is there any real time protection against potential ******** and trojans? Or are all those realtimers harmful towards Mac?
Would I be secure if I simply run Malwarebytes every day to see if something slipped in?
